Governor Brown: Ban Fracking in California Now

Petition Text

Tell Governor Jerry Brown that it is time to ban fracking in California.

Why is this important?

Governor Cuomo of New York just declared a ban on fracking. Howard Zucker, the acting New York State Health Commissioner, said a recently released scientific study found that there were "significant public health risks" associated with fracking, including water contamination and air pollution. In California we have the added problem of drought conditions. The millions of gallons of water used in fracking is an incredible waste of this precious resource.

It is time for Governor Jerry Brown to take action and ban fracking in California now.
